A little something that helps me personally on the bad days
A little something that helps me personally on the bad days I've been into playing music the last few years and recently I've been getting more serious about trying to be a better singer. On days that...
Disclosure, I’m a speech therapist. I don’t work for expresable. I work for a public school. I also live in the US so that’s my perspective. I just did a quick Google search and it looks legit. You ca...
The best thing you can do is to treat this as a learning experience, sort of like a stepping stone where you're building and improving your speech based on good and bad experiences. Here are the thin...
I'd avoid the phone until I have some successes in easier speaking situations, like talking to a friend. *(I've just noticed now, that you have to speak on the phone because of your job, so it's not...
This may be strange advice but I’ve found that if I can get my name and the reason I’m calling out of the way, then the rest is easy. Something I’ve tried is recording on an iPad (voice memo) and then...
Practice is the best bet here. Record yourself reading a passage and then play it back. Keep recording over and over again until the stutter goes away on that passage or very minimal where it is not n...
This is a tough one, I will say. I think that my best advice is to give her the tools to be open about her stutter, and teach her to tell others about it so they can hope to be patient with her. At t...
Thanks for the post, u/Muttly2001... Modifying Phonation Intervals is an approach to speech therapy for those who stutter that is focused on changing speech in order to enhance fluency. Certainly, so...
They never helped me 100%. The only one that mostly helped was light steady breathing into the sounds that give you the most trouble. Like, breathe into the sound and give the sound air/breath like yo...
I’m so sorry to hear about your bad experiences. Search “fluency shaping techniques” on YouTube and a bunch of videos exist to help teach strategies to reduce stuttering....
One trick that I do I can quickly restart a sentence and when I get the flow going it makes it easier to say words I struggle with. I'll say "my name is.....(utterly failing to say my name).. my name ...
I reach frustration because it takes me longer to say things that fluent people do. Also, the fact that people are impatient. Can't blame them for not knowing what's going on. Strategies like: easy on...
Thank you. I didn’t think of using the pause. Also music does help me reduce stuttering and I’ll try that!...
If you’re recording it by yourself, you can do anything. The voice recorder app on Microsoft allows to pause and the clip will pause too, so if you feel that you’re about stutter, just take that pause...
Same here. This new normal of virtual zoom, Skype and Microsoft Teams meetings has pushed us completely out of our comfort zone. I called my buddies and just practiced, and practiced, and practic...

I listen to lots of audiobooks and podcasts and can't say I notice a difference between the severity of my stutter on day when I do or don't listen to books. I will say that what does help me in regar...
The messed up thing is that we stammer because we are trying not to stammer. I'm an aspiring SLP, currently a SLPA, who stutters and I would recommend keeping your muscles as relaxed as possible, beca...
Speaking is tiring.
Speaking is tiring. I am 19M and a stammerer (not by birth; words get blocked). The stammer is not extreme as I can talk to friends in person and on call without stammering most of the times. From a...
